Explain in your own words,the FOUR key recommendations of the report.
-Housing size and types are varied to provide the elderly with more choices.
-Public transport should be elder-friendly, for example, they should be wheelchair-friendly.
-$10 million fund will be set aside for organising programmes and activities for the seniors.
- Continue building on strong family ties so that the elders can depend on their family for support before anything else.
State ONE way that the CAI report is recommending to make our public housing more elderly-friendly.
It is suggesting that support services be provided within the community, as well as opportunities for the seniors to lead an active lifestyle.
State TWO ways on how we can ensure that the quality of elderly care here in Singapore is affordable.
-Caregiver Centres can be set up to support families in care-giving through provision of information resources and programmes.
-The private and people sector can study and develop the range of community-based nursing services and personal care services so as to increase the range of services available in the community.
After reading the CAI report, what do you are the THREE things that you can do, as an SST student, to help overcome these elderly challenges.
- We can help out at the public campaigns that are suggested in this CAI report.
- We can start with our own family. We can build strong ties with the elders in the family so that they know they have someone to depend on.
